Customer Reviews

Keep it to yourself
Keep this to yourself because we don't want everyone knowing this – Amadou and Mariam are brilliant… and hardly anyone beyond sandal-sporting, Afro-philes knows about them. Wati is either their third or fourth album (it's difficult to know because we get such precious scraps of their music in the UK) and it's as amazing as Tje Ni Mousso and Sou Ni Tilé. They are a Malian couple (incidently they're blind) who mix traditional African rhythms and voices with western pop melodies. Their music possesses a genuine joy for life and you can imagine them beaming broadly as they play their life-affirming melodies. Get Wati before it becomes as tricky to acquire as all their other CDs.

the best A & M album
before Mano whatnot and damian allbran started diluting this wonderful music with their fusion tasic gubbins, this album will make you dance and dance and dance it is incredible and the best by far
